The system, using subcomponents such as a camera and laser devices mounted on a helicopter, calculates the position of the helicopter. The processed data is used to enhance the approach sensitivity of the helicopter to the flight deck instantly, ensuring that the helicopter is kept at a correct angle while landing on the ship's helipad.
Ismail Demir, the head of the SSB, said the system was developed within the country for the first time.
The system allows helicopters to land safely on ships, stabilize and tow to the hangar, he told Anadolu.
The system will also take its place in new ships that will enter the inventory, Demir noted.
